Wakefield Park Track Day - Friday August 13th!!

[JustenGT8]

The other failcar was a peugeot 205 gti + supercharger; a prime example of agricultural motorsport and a previous regular of our days. Nice photos Hack, looking forward to some more..?

fail car indeed...x2 sessions red flagged because of that PoS and by the way it was running ie barely; he had to know it was only going to have issues Try once perhaps, but twice?

[trdee]

i thought it was like four sessions he red flagged? makes me feel better for red flagging one session i guess

Great day out there, as always good to see a bunch of familiar faces

As said by others perfect weather even if the track was a bit greasy at the start, thanks to all who gave me some passenger laps

[trdee]

the wetness was awesome fun at the start lol. 4 wheel drifting into turn 2!!!

Thanks again Garth for putting on another great event.

Was quite interesting trying to get around the first couple of sessions on slicks with so much water running across the 3 major corners

One highlight was riding shotgun in Damos twin turbo V8 Soarer - great all round package that turns, stops and goes extremely well.

I have to put my hand up for one of the red flags - footage is here in all it's glory and I still can't work out why it spun, made some horrible rattling noises before I shut it down and then why the bastard wouldn't fire until towed back into the pits where it then fired like nothing had happened - it then did another 40+ laps and towed the trailer home another 300kms without so much as a hiccup!!

A bit more footage, this time of Jeff's last session with a couple of shagged slicks underneath http://youtu.be/4GrkK_oNS5w
